Presumably US Navy warbirds are acceptable

Yes they are....

Thanks to Mark/rebel 14 for picking my picture in the last competition (caught me off guard). Sorry for the delay in posting the next subject, but have been at work...anyway Navy Warbirds, Corsair, Hellcat, Sea Fury, Seafire etc (you get the idea). I think 3 per person would be the best.. https://li...

Another visit to Sywell...it was bit hotter than my last visit 2 weeks ago, but it was not as busy (people wise)... One or two visiting aircraft with G-CIAO Sky Arrow 650T being rare for me....but a Moroccan registered AW139 CN-HAW being the star item, do not often see that. TF-51 "Contrary Mary" ha...

Hawker Hunter G-PSST "Miss Demeanour" by MUSTANG_P51, on Flickr

Today`s flight was solo...got the impression he was a newish pilot, did a really good check over the aircraft.

I believe ML407 has been flying most days this week..

Finally managed a visit this morning and it was fairly busy...noted P-51D "Contrary Mary" having its propeller hub fitted (stayed inside blister) and Spitfire Tr.9 ML407 went up for a flight (before I left). Bike runs were being done up and down the runway as well.... Apparently the car park gates a...

Finally manged to visit Sywell and blow the dust off the camera gear....Spitfire ML407 went up as did The Blades https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50148164447_762b982b3d_h.jpg Spitfire Tr.9 ML407 by MUSTANG_P51 , on Flickr https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50147391538_efd06de627_h.jpg Spitfire T...
